At his age he needs to play games, especially as a winger whose game is all about low percentage play. It is hard to come into a side every few weeks, sometimes in the Cups with fringe players, occasionally in the league and find fluency.
I believe that was only his 6th league start of the season, with the rest of the team struggling he becomes an easy target for crowd ire and for a game changing substitute. If the team starts the match with the same energy and intensity as they finished he would have a much easier time making an impact.
He made a good contribution to our success last season, scored a few goals and his crossing and general play was quite impressive, remember him coming on at Lyon when Utd needed a goal and putting a series of dangerous balls in. He felt part of the team then, at the moment it seems every match is a trial for him, puts a lot of pressure on him.
